Hysteroscopy is the inspection of the uterine cavity by endoscopy with access through the cervix.It is a very important medical procedure in infertility investigation and treatment because it allows for the diagnosis of uterine pathology and serves as a method for surgical intervention.

Hysteroscopy is recommended for various conditions including infertility, recurrent miscarriages, intrauterine adhesions, polyps, fibroids, repeated IVF failures, and uterine abnormalities such as bicornuate and septate uterus. This procedure can be conducted either in a physician’s office or in a hospital setting. It carries minimal risk and can be performed using local or general anesthesia, ensuring patient comfort and safety.

An operative hysteroscopy involves the utilization of a resectoscope, enabling physicians to address various pathologies within the uterus. In the context of IVF, hysteroscopy holds great significance as it allows for the careful placement of embryos into the uterine cavity. The quality of the endometrium, which is thoroughly evaluated during hysteroscopy, plays a vital role in determining the success of IVF treatment.
